Answer:

50 pack

[tex]\$0.01[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of packs at Costco = 30

Cost of 30 packs at Costco = $10.82

Number of packs at the other place = 50

Cost of 50 packs = $17.25

Cost of one pack when 30 packs are bought

[tex]\dfrac{10.82}{30}=\$0.36[/tex]

Cost of one pack when 50 packs are bought

[tex]\dfrac{17.25}{50}=\$0.35[/tex]

It is better to buy the 50 pack.

Difference in the unit prices = [tex]0.36-0.35=\$0.01[/tex].
